Announcing Tycho Data Osprey’s Microsoft Teams Integration: Real-Time PI Asset Framework & Vision Issue Alerts
We’re excited to introduce a new way to keep your industrial data operations connected and responsive with the new Tycho Data Osprey + Microsoft Teams integration.
📊 The Challenge: PI Asset Framework and Vision Issues Often Go Unnoticed
In complex PI Asset Framework (AF) and PI Vision environments, broken tag links, missing attributes, and server connection issues can go undetected until someone stumbles across them often at the worst possible time.
When issues do get reported, they usually travel through disconnected channels like email or hallway conversations, leaving administrators chasing incomplete details and wasting valuable time trying to locate the problem display or asset.
💡 The Osprey + Teams Solution
Now, with Osprey’s Microsoft Teams integration, your support teams and admins can get instant, actionable alerts in their Teams channels whenever:
An issue is flagged on a PI Vision display
A PI AF Attribute or PI Tag is unavailable, misconfigured, or mapped incorrectly
A display references a server or database that’s been deprecated or moved
📥 Osprey uses Generative AI to summarize the issue, identify the affected displays, AF databases, and PI Tags and sends a real-time notification straight to your designated Teams channel.
🔍 Example Alert Message
🚨 PI Vision Issue Detected
Display: Operations Overview Display ID: 2235 Issue: AF attribute Pump1.Status from AF Server: PROD_AF is unavailable Impacted Database: Process_Assets
AI Summary: The Operations Overview display is showing a “Server unavailable” error due to a missing AF attribute. The attribute is linked to a production AF server and will affect live monitoring data.
🤝 Why It Matters
Bringing PI AF and Vision operational alerts into Microsoft Teams means your support teams are:
🔔 Notified immediately when something breaks
📊 Given the full context of affected displays, AF attributes, servers, databases, and AI-generated summaries
🚀 Able to respond faster and smarter without sifting through logs or SQL queries
🔄 Keeping stakeholders in the loop automatically
🔍 PI Asset Framework + Teams: A Smarter Operational Workflow
This integration creates a live operational bridge between PI Asset Framework, PI Vision, and Microsoft Teams so your plant, asset, and IT support teams can stay connected in real-time.
